Hi there,
I just updated P8000 via OTA update and after downloading the Update, the phone restarted and stops at the elephone boot Logo (about 30 min )!!
I did 5 Restarts but every time it hangs at the boot logo...
In the past i did no other updates or flashing ROMS.. nothing!
When i press "Volume Up" and "Power" to Start, i get three Options:
Recovery Mode
Fastboot Mode
Normal Boot
Using Recovery Mode leads to: Symbol Android Robot with "No Order" (in german : "Kein Befehl")
Using Fastboot Mode leads to: Nothing (Recovery Menue stays)
Using Normal Boot leads to: restart and hanging at Elephone Boot Logo
So, I am running out of Options... any ideas?
Cheers, Albert

The Hardware of P8000 is pretty cool, but the Software is "§$§"%§""!$%
When you go to recovery mode and get the the android robot symbol. Press again Vol up + Power until you enter to recovery. Make a 3 wipe (data factory , cache and dalvink). Reboot and uninstall the El loader. Use another Loader instead of El Loader
i had the same problem. (in English NO COMMAND) I only flash Eragon ROM again. Sometimes you have to repeate.

After that everything goes according to instructions

No CM 12.1 is not available yet.
In order to uninstall EI Loader, install first root (superSU), then install ccleaner and you can uninstall EI Loader (In system app)
Hi there, sorry for the revival !
But i got the same problem: OTA update, fail, P8000 blocked on boot screen.
I tried wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache -> nothing changed, still boot screen blocked...
Then, i tried to use flash tool, but, the phone isn't booting, so my pc isn't recognizing the phone..
I'm not even sure that I correctly installed the drivers..
Can i use flash tool even if the phone is blocked to boot screen?
I downloaded this ROM: stock-rom-elephone-p8000-20150907-android-5-1 (this is my first post i can't post URL..)
Because i got some issues with my phone and support told me to try it.
But when i follow the tutorial, launching "donwload" and connecting the phone, nothing happening..
The phone turn on, and display recharging logo, and flash tool still wainting.
Recovery mode -> "No command", Volume up + power is working, i used it to wipe datas
But at the moment, i'm still blocked, since 2 days, i dont know what to do
Can someone help me?
Thank you by advance, i hope my english isn't so bad

Yes you can use SPFlash tool evenif the phone stucks in the boot screen. Simply switch the phone off, start SPFlash tool and then connect the phone to usb.
If you follow the instructions from elephone, then your phone should working again: http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-1037-1-1.html#.VofQ13wvdpo

Hi, and thx for the help.
The driver is correctly installed now, i had to allow unsigned drivers in windows parameters.
So, i followed the tutorial, again.
I configured SP flash tool, clicked download, and then connected powered off P8000 with USB.
But, again, the phone displays recharging logo, and flash tool still waiting...
The phone is recharging so the USB is working, so i don't know how to make my PC detect the phone......
Is there a way or a thing that i missed?
thank you..
EDIT: i finally got a timeout error from flashtool..
I missed something, but what !? i can't remove P8000 battery, is there somthing to do to get it detected by windows?
Like a boot mode, or a magic formula... i'm open
For MTK Driver installation:
Did you follow skeletons Guide? http://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p8000/help/guide-windows-10-mtk-vcom-usb-drivers-t3264884
I'm sorry to say, that I do not have any experience with windows installation, this problem, because SPFlash tool performes on my 64bit Linux very well, without any driver trouble.
Cheers
Hi,
I'm on windows 8.
I used SP_driver_v2.0, that is an .exe
it's the only driver tips gived in most of tutorial
I allowed unsigned drivers installation, and i correctly installed it.
I tried too use flashtool before and after restarting the PC-> no changes
Flashtool doesnt detect the phone
I start getting crazy..
I have repaired mine, so i'll share

So the simple way to solve it is flashing the latest stock elephone p8000 ROM, which you can find on google easly
1. as described on other forums, you have to install the adnroid drivers, then get the sp flash tool, and have an un-zipped stock elephone p8000 ROM.
2. if you are stuck at bootloop, do the following to power off the phone so you can flash the ROM
1. Long press power button until power off
2.Do it fast--Press volume Up and then hold power button
3. choose recovery (volume up choose menu, volume down enter)
4. android logo with red triangle is displayed( "no command")
5. hold power button and press volume up
You're in recovery mode
3. select power off
4. open the SP flash tool >go to download tab>opne "scatter loading"( you will find it in the Folder where you unzipped the stock elephone p8000 ROM, if you have more folders there, chose "firmware" folder)
5. on the left side, under scatter loading, you will find a "pull-down" tab - it will be written "download" chose "firmware upgrade" or "upgrade"
6. start the process, then connect your elephone p8000 (it must be powere off) via usb cable to the PC, the process will start,and in less then 5 Minutes you have a factory new Elephone p8000 with the latest good update
7. WATCH OUT- it will erase all your data, absolutely all your data on the phone, except SIM and SD card.
Hope it helped, if not, feel free to ask me =)
Hello,
I have similar problem. Bought P8000 5 days ago. Did update today. Bricked. Stuck at logo ... I tried to flash but SP flush tool but the process isn't starting. When I downloaded ROM I received long list as on the screenshot: kaczorowscy.name/Screenshot.png
I have ubuntu - I see lsusb and dmesg see the phone (it is shut down from recovery menu) but maybe I am missing something ....
Ok here is what id did:
1. Get SP flashtool
2. get newest stock ROM
3. Shut down phone through android recovery menu (start phone with holding volume up, select recovery mode, wait for dead android, hold volume up and unblock button for 3 sec.)
4. Open SP flashtool - use "format all + download" of ROM (unzip and select scatter file from rom) - click start
5. Connect shut downed phone
6. Dot OK! from flashtool
PS. Flashing removed IMEIs - they are both written on the battery - you need to use android service menu to check them with special codes and reboot the phone.
Thanks ALL! :good:
Fix - Recovery Mode

When I was trying to root my p8000 I couldn't flash a custom recovery, fortunately I discovered that to access recovery on stock android you need to go to the screen with the android and "no command"/"no order" text and hold down Vol+Up and Power for 3~ seconds and then release power, this will boot you into recovery mode, If wiping cache/factory reset isn't enough "fastboot flash recovery <image>.img" SHOULD work now
hope this helped
Help please..My Lg G4 H815 is stuck on infinite loop since yesterday..
Just shord to be in words...My phone was stuck on lg logo after the battery whrn dead and then boots up and on the type the pin he restarted over and over, and i tried to reflash with LGUP and at 17% my phone restarted just like that..

PS: I can't enter download mode (only shows Download mode and the the error and restarts)
I can't enter recovery(stock one) but when i him yes the second time to erase the error shows up and restarts.
Use the search option. Not for me and not for anyone else but to help yourself as fast as possible. You'll also learn stuff.
XDA user roopesh had the same problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com//g4/development/stock-h815-20a-stock-rom-t3233049/post63721579
He/she fixed their problem by following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/guide-lg-g4-stock-firmware-to-stock-kdz-t3107848
Or follow my guide:
i) Make sure you have the LG Drivers installed from here: http://oceanhost.eu/e4h2px4e0hkd/LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.0.4.exe.htm
ii) Download the LG Bridge software from here: http://www.lg.com/us/support/product-help/CT10000025-1438110404543-preinstall-apps
iii) Remove the battery and reinsert it so the device it is fully off.
iv) While holding the up volume button, insert your USB cable.
v) You should enter download mode. Go to the Software Update tab of the LG Bridge. It will say connecting and then should say your device is up to date. Click on the recovery text on the bottom right and then follow the instructions. The software will download the system image for you and this is roughly 1.6GB so make sure your firewall doesn't block this connection.
I've searched everywhere i think..before i posted the question
The phone wont stay in download mode....
It shows the little box with download and then the error i mentionet above and restarts..
And means SEA mobile?
hey alex have you fixed your g4 ? i have same problem.
Hi all,
I have tried my luck in two different threads already and did hours of research but thus far, no success. I hope somebody can help me.
I installed the official Nougat (V29A) update and after that the Oreo AOSCP ROM. Everything went (seemingly) fine, Oreo was working. I wanted to reflash Oreo to get rid of some Google Apps, but the problem then was, that I could not reboot into TWRP. The only recovery mode is the Android recovery and I cannot reset the phone, neither use ADB sideload, nor do anything else (unknown fs_filetype error). Only thing that is working, is to enter the fastboot mode, but my laptop does not recognize the phone while in fastboot mode.
I also tried resetting the phone to factory defaults from within Android (back when it was still booting up) and now my phone is stuck in a bootloop which ends in the (useless) Android recovery mode.
At first I thought reflashing the stock kdz would not be a problem. I am able to enter download mode, but it only stays in download mode for about 15 seconds and then reboots itself. LGUP or LG flash tool, don't recognize my phone in that short amount of time.
I tried the above mentioned solutions on OS X, Windows 7, Windows 10 as well as FWUL. No system recognizes my phone.
I really am at my wit's end. Any help would be appreciated.
If any further information are needed, I am happy to provide these.
I changed following in hidden menu NT Code, changed as below NT Codes with respect to firmware region... Rebooted after confirmation "NT Code Write OK" message.
V29a Firmware NT Code:
"1","FFF,FFF,FFFFFFFF,FFFFFFFF,11"
V20h Firmware NT Code:
"1","FFF,FFF,FFFFFFFF,FFFFFFFF,51"
Checked in both above firmwares..Worked flawlessly on my h818p...No more annoying message on every boot.
Software Version in about/ settings also changed to region exp. 20h-DS2-XX to 20h-ESA-XX upon reboot.
Is DS2 appears when cust mismatch..?
Hello all.
I recently dug up my k012 to play around a bit with some app testing.
It was on android 4, rooted, and the android 5 update started to install, unfortunately, the update always ends up in an error.
I tried many things to solve this issue, my main problem is, fastboot is no longer accesible.
When i press my volume up and power button, the tablet powers up, displays the asus logo for 1 sec, and restars, after the restart it attempts to update the system again with the same error.
I have managed to get the usb mode to work by pressing the volume down button and powering thw device and i have tried using xfstk to try and load up the new software, however, after xfstk finihshes the job and i get the message reeboting to os, the tablet only displays the asus logo with a red line under it and i cannot boot into fastboot again.
I can only restart it into the system update loop, or the usb mode again.
Any help would be appreciated. I need a ver 4-5 android device for work to test apps, and this is my only device.
Than you all in advance
